 while it is quite clear that the C stable API is the way to go for
 development, and should be preferred to the C++ API, the geos-config tool
 is quite confused (if not wrong) about that.

 I suggest you change the --libs to provide -lgeos_c (which is sane and
 safe for most programs) and add --cclibs for others. Note that it is
 probably a good thing adding --static-libs and --static-cclibs (i.e.
 -lgeos_c -lgeos -lm and -lgeos -lm) to simplify dependency providing for
 the --static case.
